Full-sky Temperature Maps-Polarized Light-K-Band Map (23 GHz)-Credit:NASA/WMAP Science Team The color represents the strength of the polarized signal seen by WMAP – red strong/blue weak. The signal seen in these maps comes mostly from our Galaxy. It is strongest at … Continue reading →

Before I begin I had to mention the following two entries below that I wanted to do but was short on time. This recording was produced by converting into audible sounds some of the radar echoes received by Huygens during … Continue reading →
